Do you double click actual (hyper)links to navigate or folders? Because in the context of a file manager I think single click to select and double click to navigate is the only sane approach. How do you multi-select with something like a shift-click if single clicks navigate you away from the current page.
Single click to navigate in a file manager is what got us those laughably inefficient interfaces where you have check boxes beside every item and no reasonable way to multi-select.
Maybe those 6 people immediately double clicked because it's the only non-stupid way of doing it?
